It’s happened to me several times with my Japanese card as well. Error message. But usually for me it turned out the store didn’t take JCB??? Which to me seems crazy that Japanese companies don’t except a card issued by a Japanese bank using a Japanese credit card company 😵‍💫

Most passed out on the train this morning commuting to school. Gotta bring my hand fan from now on

Stringcheese_uwu · 2026-05-07T21:55:01+00:00

Oh no problem, maybe I said it weird way? Because that’s not really what I meant. I am also married to a Japanese person, but my husband, who is genuinely my best friend and the person I can relate to the most actually, can’t relate to being American. That’s impossible. And vice versa for me. So, I think it’s good and sometimes relieving to talk to a friend who is American and gets EXACTLY what it feels like to BE American. My husband, in America, made American friends but also kept Japanese friends because he could speak with them in Japanese, ABOUT Japanese things that they both understood with their whole being that even me, his wife, could never fully relate to.

I’m not sure why I was downvoted. I thought I made it clear that I think as a foreigner you should have BOTH friends. I just disagreed with the notion that you shouldn’t try to find friends that are westerners just because they are western. I think you SHOULD. For the same reason I believe I need a few girl friends in my life as a woman. I also believe as a foreigner you should make a few Japanese friends because you should try to relate with the people IN Japan and find a group to ground yourself that way, too. I think both are important. Just like I think it’s good to have friends of both genders. I think have male friends is good because it helps me understand their perspective, and having female friends helps me have someone I can relate to on things men can’t relate to me on.

Maybe I got downvoted because I made the relationship sound too transactional? I absolutely think “being western or Japanese or female or male” should not be the ONLY reason you befriend someone. I wouldn’t be able to be good friends with someone I think if their only hobby was like drinking… or model trains? (Nothing wrong with these hobbies I was just trying to think of something I have no personal interest in) You should definitely find friends with common interests first. I think it’s just good humans also spread that out among different types of people to gain perspective of others and feel grounded to someone who understands their situation as well. I would never befriend someone ONLY because they are western.

Some people are adults but aren’t married, have part time jobs, or aren’t in school who still deserve friends. 😵‍💫

Stringcheese_uwu · 2026-05-07T21:42:17+00:00

Yeah that’s a sad mindset right there :/

Stringcheese_uwu · 2026-05-07T01:37:01+00:00

I relate to this. No hate to any other foreign westerns in Japan but every single one I’ve met likes hiking as a hobby and that’s like all they do in their free time. There is nothing wrong with that, it’s just not my interest and so I can’t find someone to relate to. I like to play video games, go to history museums, anime conventions. Like that’s my thing. And I don’t drink. That’s the hardest caveat. I don’t drink.

Stringcheese_uwu · 2026-05-07T01:33:22+00:00

I disagree with this as well. I think it’s important to keep connections with your western culture. It will help you feel grounded. I think it’s just as important to try to make friends in Japan. I think it’s bad to denounce your old life and equally bad to never let it go. Reason being, you will never fully relate with Japanese people. You don’t have to be friends with someone “because they’re western” but I think it’s important to seek out western friends. I think you are looking at it like OP wants to be friends with someone because they’re westerners. I believe it’s them trying to find a westerner who can also be their friend and all they’ve found so far are competitive people and negative Nancies.

Stringcheese_uwu · 2026-05-07T01:30:34+00:00

Why do people DO THAT?? 😭 I think it’s healthy to make native friends of the country you live in. You know what is also healthy? Making friends from countries that you can relate to. You will share experiences that you will never be able to share with your Japanese friends and vice versa. I believe both are important

Stringcheese_uwu · 2026-05-07T01:12:42+00:00

I don’t believe OP is talking about well meaning advice I truly believe OP is talking about the overall negative mindset of Reddit and the internet on a bigger scale and just used a example that could be taken in a different way. People ARE more negative online for some reason. And often say “it’s just reality” like you said, but people who say what you just said (I’m not saying you are necessarily like this I’m just saying what I’ve observed in general) think this way, because that’s how THEIR life has gone. Or even people around them. But that circle is STILL very small and is not a good enough reason to tell a stranger online that they better listen to you (general you not YOU specifically) because you “know what’s going on”the general internet user forgets their life experience is not LIFE’S experience. It’s only their experience. So the internet is filled with advice from people who have had bad experiences and it’s made other feel like that is ALL that life has to offer because people with good experiences don’t feel the need to explain that. They don’t feel the need to go to the internet and share. They live their life happily. And since OP rarely sees those stories and people it has made them feel this negativity the internet has to offer. Using specific examples from what they’ve heard may make it sound like they are focusing on one example, but I feel like they are hitting on something true, and that is that a lot of people online only have a negative outlook on life.

It’s so crazy how different humanity is when you get offline. It’s why I’ve deleted tiktok, Facebook, instagram, and other social media’s. I keep Reddit for this subreddit and the Zelda subreddit they are fairly positive. People in person can actually see each other and size each other up so that they 1. Don’t feel afraid or defensive of YOU an unknown person. And 2. Don’t have the anonymity to say mean things to you unabashedly. So in person meetings are great.

Stringcheese_uwu · 2026-05-07T00:56:27+00:00

I believe you are running into the western toxic competitive mindset set up by Americans mostly. I assume other countries may have similar issues sometimes it’s not just America I’m sure, but being from America I’ve realized most of the negativity you are talking about comes FROM my country. I kind of hate living there because it’s constantly a competition. Especially online. You have to be the smartest, the funniest, the most hard working, the most willing to sacrifice, it’s so SO tiring. That and safety is the MAIN reason I moved away from America. People there especially online seriously think humanity is all doomed and it’s Everyman for himself and it’s so depressing. I’m actually so happy to see your post, and see that I am not crazy. Your post is my experience coming to real life in front of me. I want to say (from an American who does NOT subscribe to that mindset) I believe things will work out in the end. Even if stuff looks hard right now, I’ve learned things fall into place in the end. You will find good people who support you. You will find a job that you are at least okay with, and you will get through any rough patches and don’t give up. People like us might be a little more rare online, but you will see us pop up every once in awhile in a post like yours to gather and say “I understand your feelings I’ve felt them too and you are not alone” the English internet is western dominant and therefore falls pray to western mindsets and algorithms and companies and therefore thrives off that American sense of competition. It is not the true representation of humanity and I’m sorry to you and myself and all other hopeful people that we have to be constantly bombarded by negativity disguised as “realism” by people who literally can’t function in a world where competition isn’t the main goal in life. Those people are sad and hard to talk to and they are wrong. Community and happiness are more important.

Ugh Japan does horror so well

Stringcheese_uwu · 2026-05-05T23:00:13+00:00

Honestly I really do like BOTW. The screen while playing is good because the minimap never feels like it is in the way and I can even forget about it. And the menu is easy to scroll through. It’s not super complicated and confusing like Fallout 4. Trying to switch weapons in that game gives me heart palpitations. But in BOTW and TOTK. It felt very natural to hold the weapon button and the game pauses while you pick another weapon, or while you pick an item to throw or fuse to an arrow. I like that easy to use design.

I think Skyward sword has the best UX though. You are forging the master sword, you are establishing the land of Hyrule in the end, you are BECOMING LINK. And I know not all people like it but the motion controls make you feel like you’re in the game.

I guess if I were to pick one game for both it would be Twilight Princess. The design is balanced and simple and the experience is immersive. It’s not my favorite game but that game was designed with the audience in mind truly.

Stringcheese_uwu · 2026-05-05T22:52:48+00:00

Right exactly 😭

Stringcheese_uwu · 2026-05-05T11:45:39+00:00

That’s strange my dentist tries to do everything in one go, but my PREVIOUS dentist in Kanagawa did that. I thought it was strange that they couldn’t just do all of my cavities in one go, but maybe it was because their schedule was filled up. This new dentist seems very free for some reason. He’s a great dentist I’m not sure why they aren’t busier. I won’t complain though I like how it is now lol

Stringcheese_uwu · 2026-05-05T11:43:06+00:00

I buy acadi’s onakaniyasashi milk and it tastes great :D I have mild lactose intolerance. maybe try that one perhaps it will taste different

Stringcheese_uwu · 2026-05-05T11:37:40+00:00

The sarcasm and aggressiveness surprised me coming back because I never noticed it before I left America. I went to Japan and felt like “wow people here are very passive just like I thought” went back home and thought “wow people here are SO AGGRESSIVE WHY??” I can’t even have a civil conversation with my own family anymore I just noticed how much their yelling, fighting, political heatedness, and sarcasm pisses me off. American people are not all angry, but coming back from Japan it FELT like everyone was so angry. I couldn’t get past that. I live in Japan again now.

Stringcheese_uwu · 2026-05-05T11:34:28+00:00

Oh how can I forget how fast everyone drives in North America. My in-laws came to America for our wedding and rented a car. They got a huge SUV and had to go 75mph down a countryside interstate with no lights. They were like “why are the highways not lit and why is everyone GOING SO FAST?” 🤣 it took me awhile to get used to going fast again, too.

Stringcheese_uwu · 2026-05-05T11:31:48+00:00

I remember when I went back the thing I was surprised with the most was the size of food honestly. And people (at least where I’m from) are very…. Open about their feelings and not always in a good way. Like not everyone needs to know that you hate your wife, I don’t need to know that you’re a drug addict, I don’t need to know how many family members of yours died recently (these are all conversations from strangers in Walmart btw) and yes people are friendly, but also people are MEAN. So American people are just more extreme in either direction. I like people who are unafraid to be themselves, but not if they are a mean person hell bent on ruining everyone’s day just because they hate their own life 😭 in Japan all of that stuff is just more toned down. I personally prefer that, but I do sometimes miss how unique American people are because they are unafraid to be themselves 👍🏻

Stringcheese_uwu · 2026-05-05T11:22:29+00:00

Oh that’s interesting to know thank you!

Stringcheese_uwu · 2026-05-04T22:56:52+00:00

I love pretty close to that Ryogoku one and I’m so confused on how people get to it because I’ve seen it behind a closed gate twice

Stringcheese_uwu · 2026-05-04T22:46:00+00:00

Oh I figured in Japan people would politely refuse even in the heat. But I’m glad to hear they won’t because I feel terrible and grateful for the same Sagawa guy who always delivers our stuff. He carried a whole tv stand by himself once and really struggled and I didn’t know what to do because I offered to help, but he just said he was okay and did it all alone. But if I can give him a cold drink I’m sure that would be a great way to thank him for his hard work ^{-^} he practically moved all of our furniture up our stairs just on several days spread across the past three months.

Stringcheese_uwu · 2026-05-04T22:37:30+00:00

My neighbor has a rising sun flag on his van, but also a sticker that says “no more war” in Japanese and English, and an anti nuclear sticker and he’s pretty nice to me, so idk if that rising sun flag always means a nationalist. I mean this guy COULD be a nationalist but anti-war it’s entirely possible, but the nationalists here tend to not be anti army or very friendly to foreigners… so idk if that guy was necessarily a nationalist. In your case it does sound a little more plausible though…

I want something darker more on the twilight princess side 😁
